                 So how did the Ancient Egyptians build these giant pyramids? By
             what power, with what machinery, by what techniques were the rock
             terraces set out? By what means were the rock tombs carved out? How
             was lighting provided during construction? (No staining or soot has
             been found on the walls or ceilings inside the pyramids and tombs.)
             How were blocks of stone removed from the quarries, and how were
             the differently shaped faces of the blocks smoothed? How were these
             blocks, weighing several tons, transported, and how were they fit to-
             gether to an accuracy of 1/1000 of a centimeter? The list of questions
             could be a lot longer. Can they be answered in a logical and rational way
             through the evolutionist misconception of mankind's history? Of course
             not!
                 With their art, medicine and culture, the Ancient Egyptians pro-
             duced a giant civilization. The works they left behind, the medical thera-
             pies they used and the accumulated knowledge and experience they
             possessed are some of the most important proofs of this. Some scientists
             today even claim that the works produced by the Egyptians—for whom,





           Buildings constructed by past societies using giant stones indicate that machinery similar to that
           used in modern construction must have been employed in the past. The resemblance of this dec-
           orative object of gold to construction machinery is striking. Discovered in Panama in the 1920s,
           this item is believed to have been hung as a pendant. This and similar discoveries refute evolu-
           tionist claims that past societies were completely primitive. There have been obvious advances in
           technology and knowledge accumulated throughout the course of history, but this does not mean
           that people in the past lived like animals. Past societies developed various devices and used ma-
           chinery in light of their own requirements.
